    I think most of us were. My wife said we are a cult. :lol:

    Yeah, that was fun. Wish I knew more of their music going in, but good time and really good show.

    so tonight papeldork is available for a 4 out save, but earlier in the week he wasn't. makes no sense. I don't understand manuel's thought process with his bullpen.

    How in the hell do they win with that starting lineup including KK?

    I'm having a tough time getting rid of my tix for tomorrow night's Pence bobble heads. :lol::lol::lol:

    The four stage set up blows. At Jazzfest (New Orleans) you could hear random music from other stages bleed into the PJ songs, especially the slow songs.

    I liked the thing about Eddie Vedder complaining to Rolling Stone next year about the 4% city wage tax. :lol:

    Just read it. Awesome. I can't wait; I think the setup is pretty sweet - at least it sounds that way.

    Pretty pumped. Surprised at the 4 stage set up. The original plan, I believe, was to have two stages next to each other (switch back and forth) and a DJ tent.

    Was at the game last night. Got up to piss when Papelface came in to blow another one. All the fans were standing up and cheering when he came in. What did he ever do to deserve that? He fucking blows. People are fucking stupid. I was just about gloating about how much he sucks after his typically terrible performance.

    great post. he is such a tool too, which makes his shittiness even more annoying.

    have to admit that I have been keeping up with standings lately since they have started showing signs of life. pitt is gonna choke again this year. not sure they could have caught STL, but a nice series win vs cincy could have given them some life. Their sept schedule is a cakewalk.

    But last night erased what faint hope remained. Stupid me for thinking otherwise.

    I gave away my tix for tonight. Again

    They have a ranking of all North American major pro uniforms on espn.com.

    How would everyone rank the Philly teams?

    I'd go
    1- Phillies
    2- Flyers
    3- 76ers



    400- Eagles

    They have the 76ers as the 4th best - Other 3 are all somewhere in the Top 50.

    I think the Phillies have the best alternate jersey in all of sports. And Flyers have one of the sports' best logos.

    If the Eagles wore those 1960 unis they would "soar" to the top. ba-da-dum

    10 games back isn't necessarily insurmountable, but too many teams to pass. I'd be happy to finish 3rd in front of the Mets, and if Cole throws a no hitter. 8-)

    d-bags #90: How to look like a minor league team: 1. Wear your nickname, instead of your full team name, on your chest. 2. Render the nickname in digital lettering that's difficult to decipher. 3. While you're at it, render your road insignia in a mix of upper- and lowercase lettering. 4. Add lots of black elements, just because.

    I think the phils unis are the worst. It's a travesty that they don't have some form of philadelphia on their away jerseys. and the red pinstripes are too much of a ripoff from our neighbors to the north. and I think the 'phillies' logo is terrible...especially with the blue star dotting the I. I don't even like the off white 3rd jersey, though I do like the fact that it doesn't have pinstripes. their sunday hats are terrible too

    so yeah, phils would be last for me.

    flyers
    sixers (love the old style they brought back last year)
    eagles (agree that they should go back to the kelly green plain look from the 60's)
    phils (distance 4th for me)

    yeah, my thinking was that if they could get it down into the 6-8 range by the end of august, then they could still make a run. not a good chance, but it would have allowed for us to watch some semi-meaningful games for the first time since april
